Safe in HIs Arms by Renee Rose

SPOILER ALERT




I enjoyed many aspects of Safe In His Arms by Renee Rose, especially the intrigue and suspense.



After a one-night fling with Zac, Becca ends up pregnant. Zac, serving in a "non-disclosed" organization would like more than his one night, espcially when he realizes that the condom slipped. He contemplates telling Becca so she would have a choice of taking a morning after pill, but then decides againt telling her. He knows he can never have her, but he likes the idea of a baby with his DNA.



I must say his cavalier attitude left me seething! Especially given the fact that Zac knows he is unable to see her again. Fast forward seven years later, we find out that Zac has been watching her through cameras in her apartment, subsidizing her rent and providing her with a car through the guise of a contest. Its is only when Becca's life it threatened that Zac returns.



Despite the fact that her lover has suddenly returned to her life and admits all of the above, she is quite forgiving.



In my opinion the spanking scenes were too frequent and I was bothered that Becca, who is positioned as a strong single mother would be reduced to tears so often. I would have enjoyed more steamy sex between the two instead of Zac having to physically spank her into releasing her emotions.



I was surprised by the ending and despite my opinion above, I eagerly read the book in one sitting.

Wow! Happy Friday. I can't tell you how long I have waited for this day of the week! Christmas is only 5 days away and i have not purchased 1 present. Slacker? Yes, but I have been reading so many good books I don't want to venture out.

Author J.S. Scott had this image posted on her facebook page today, and damn if it hasn't been playing with my mind and hormones all morning. Instead of suffering alone, I am posting here so you can enjoy the oh so good misery too!

Sigh.

RUINED by Tracy Wolff

NO SPOILERS::::::::::::::::
Love this book, and this author.

Tracy Wolff adds all of the important elements to her novels; alpha male, girl in need and lots of desire. The sex is secondary in this book (shocking, I know). It really is more about the absolute power of emotions and inner turmoil experienced by both characters.

Chloe and Ethan are well-developed characters, each with their own set of "rules to live by" and need to "never trust again." Somehow these weaknesses are what ultimately brings them together and what also tears them apart.

I was stunned by the sudden ending of the book. Suffice it to say the last page of Ruined, is not the end of their story. Can't be. There is too much that needs explaining. So much that I continue to check Tracy's facebook page to see when a sequel is expected.

You'll love this, and will want to read it all in one sitting. Promise.

I was given an advance copy of this book, all opinions are my own.
